My apt in the fan has an alley behind it that scavengers hit every Saturday. They scoop up anything of any remote value. Perhaps you can sit it near the trash and it will get scavenged

I have a picture of one of my friends "kissing" the statue's junk. I told him that if he ever goes missing / commits a crime / is otherwise on the news, that's the picture I'm giving the media 😂

Luscious bush there. Beautifully coiffed. Moist. Thick. Nice.

Sorry, I live in Oak Grove. I can't smell it over the persistent stench of sewage in this neighborhood.

I'm not that close to the city, and it's not something that I've noticed before this week. Did a new plant or something open?

There’s some light industry near Chamberlayne Avenue closer in the city.

I just moved here and follow a few comics series so I started a list with Velocity Comics. They're great, insane collection of back issues to dig through too and they stock a lot of comics I'd never have dreamed of seeing in a comic store in the small towns back home

Yep! As long as you go to driving school, your record will be clean.

Paper Tiger off of Forest Hill Ave has a good amount of manga and comics. Cards and collectibles too if you're into that. As others have said, Velocity has a great selection.

I got pulled for that a few years ago and the cop just let me off with speeding. If they didn’t tell you it was reckless then it’s just for speeding

If it's just speeding, $6 per mile over the speed limit (so at 84 in a 70, $84 plus costs). If you have a good record, as others have said, likely you can do driving school and have it ultimately dismissed.

The threshold was changed to 85 a couple years ago.
https://law.lis.virginia.gov/vacodefull/title46.2/chapter8/article7/
§ 46.2-862. Exceeding speed limit.
A person is guilty of reckless driving who drives a motor vehicle on the highways in the Commonwealth (i) at a speed of 20 miles per hour or more in excess of the applicable maximum speed limit or (ii) in excess of 85 miles per hour regardless of the applicable maximum speed limit.

I just looked it up and you’re right it does say 80+ is reckless driving. No where on my ticket does say reckless driving or RD or anything, just speeding. But I guess I’ll look more into it to be sure. Thanks!

For affordable, delicious vegan food: Minglewood, Harrison Street Cafe. If you don't mind venturing to Henrico, Second and Charles has lots of comics and manga, and there's a great Thai place and a wonderful Iraqi bakery/lunch spot nearby, with vegan options like falafel, really good hummus, fresh stone-baked bread, etc. The Thai place is called Chadar and the Iraqi bakery is called Nineveh.

You can take it to the East Richmond Road Public Use Area to safely dispose of it. They charge $15 to help cover the cost of recovering the refrigerant so that it isn't just vented into the atmosphere where it can deplete the ozone or contribute to global warming. The counties offer similar service as well.
